Pictures opening in pse 9 with rough/jagged edges....HELP, just started doing this 2 days ago
I recently purchased PSE 9 a few months ago and LOVE it. However, out of nowhere; the last few days when I open my images in pse 9 there are edges of the picture that look almost jagged for lack of a better word. At 1st I thought someone got ahold of my camera and messed up my settings but I ruled that out as even when I open photos taken months ago alraedy edited in pse they do the same thing. Funny thing is these pictures look fine in MS Office Picture Manager.
Nobody has been on my computer at all so I am completely stumped as to how a perfect picture looks great on camera and in MS Office PM and now looks really bad in pse....I'm basically unable to edit (work) until I figure out how to fix this issue.
As an example as I likely have not explained myself very well, I took some pics of my baby yesterday in just his diaper and in pse most of the edges of his skin look all rough/jagged instead of a smooth line. I then took pics of myself in another room, different lighting and some outdoor wildlife shots and it does not matter where pic is taken, subject or lighting they are all opening with these rough edges.
Please help as I can not do anything until this is fixed and I may have 2 portrait sessions this weekend!
Thank You
Hi Christina,
No one else (in the discussions I found) knew why that would become an issue either....
There's no way to set PSE to automatically display at a specific view percentage.
To check (and modify, if necessary) your Windows display settings, go to Start...Help and search for "text on screen", then choose the "Make the text on your screen larger or smaller" item from the results. It'll give you step-by-step instructions.
There's no guarantee that this next suggestion will help, but when PSE starts acting goofy, re-setting the Preferences often solves the problem:
Create a shortcut on your Desktop for the PSE9 Editor. The executable is at
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 9\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe
on Win7 x64 machines, "\Program Files" on 32-bit systems.
Hold down the Ctrl+Alt+Shift keys when you double-click on that icon to launch PSE.
Answer "Yes" to the prompt to restore the default Preferences.

My iMac displays a white screen as well upon waking up, but I do NOT have it logging out when going to sleep. I too have to color in the screen with the mouse to see anything again. Is there a fix for this?
Ok, I've done everything suggested above except for running the Disk Utility from the recovery partition, as I will have more time to spend on it tomorrow and that's something I'm too scared to try in a rush....!
I've made a screenshot of the energy saving settings changed to your suggestion, could you let me know if that's what you meant?
I really appreciate your help by the way -
I am using a Canon 640 printer and my MPNavigator will not remain open. It pops open then quickly closes. I've used it for several years but it just started doing this. What can I do to fix this problem?
I had a similar problem with a Canon MP800R under Mac OS X 10.9.2 Mavericks.
In my case, the MP Navigator app in the dock was linking to the wrong file.
It linked to Applications > MP Navigator 2.1.app > Contents > Resources > MP Navigator.app, but it should link to the "main" app, probably under Applications > MP Navigator 2.1.app.
After pulling the correct MP Navigator app file to the dock, I can start MP Navigator again by clicking on it in the dock. However, when clicking on it, a second MP Navigator icon will show up in the dock and stay there until the app is closed. By the way, the MP800R scanner also works (although officially not supported by Canon). -

While playing videos on itunes, the audio and video will stop and start several times during playback. This just started recently and it does it on all my videos. Help!!
Try to download the application VLC.
It is a media player that should be able to play any audio or video file you may have. If your videos play flawlessly using that application, then the issue is with iTunes and Quicktime, as they are both essentially similar software types when it comes to playing media.
In that case you may need to install a plug-in file called Perian, in order for the videos to play correctly within iTunes or at least Quicktime... -

I am unable to open a blank tab. Just started doing this. Why?
Suddenly my browser will not allow me to open a blank tab. If I go to help or something like that a new tab will open however, clicking "open a new tab" does absolutely nothing. I have done nothing out of the ordinary to cause this as far as I can tell.
First thing to do is to update to Firefox 10.0.10 and then see how it is.

This problem happened once before and it was related to adjusting an image size in Photoshop Organizer. I don't use the organizer anymore but this problem has resurfaced!!!
Same problem here.
This has happened on two individual computers both running elements 13 printing to the same printer.
As mentioned above, the users have taken to printing using windows print and fax viewer.
I've done a clean install of elements 13 and restarted the print spooler. no joy
Adobe, we need a solution!! -
Hope someone can help.

Firefox upon opening an image in a new tab, centers the image from top and bottom and surrounds the image with a grey frame. Just started having the problem today, searched Google to no avail.
Oh wow, looks like a new feature.
The "page" links in a stylesheet with the address "resource://gre/res/TopLevelImageDocument.css". If you remove that reference, then the image displays in the old style.
'''''Edit: Please skip the rest of this post and check out the next one.'''''
There might be a more elegant solution than that, but you could use a bookmarklet to strip out that link when you want to view the page in its old style. A bookmarklet is a snippet of JavaScript you save on the Bookmarks toolbar for quick access.
First, copy the following code to the clipboard (it's all one long line):
<br>javascript:var ssheet=document.querySelector('link[href="resource://gre/res/TopLevelImageDocument.css"]'); if(ssheet)ssheet.parentNode.removeChild(ssheet); void 0;
Next, if you are not displaying the Bookmarks Toolbar, use View > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar to display it. (If you aren't using the classic Menu bar, press Alt+v to call up the old View menu. Right-clicking the gray area just below the page address also allows you to display the Bookmarks Toolbar.)
Right-click on the Bookmarks Toolbar (or Mac equivalent of right-click!) and choose New Bookmark.
Paste the code into the Location box (the second box).
Then type a useful name in the Name box (e.g., Oldstyle Picture) and click Add.
Now, when you want to tweak the image display, click the button to run the script.
Manual clicking is a hassle, so it might make sense to look into other solutions. (Greasemonkey didn't seem to work; I think it might not run on .jpg files.) -
My Safari will not allow me to open my Google calendar with Google Apps. I have to open my email with the older version of Google Apps. This happened after I installed 5.1.4. I tried to use the fix of changing to 64 bit by unchecking the 32 bit box but that didnt help.
I assume that there are legal restrictions on the way in which iTunes can get artwork automatically from any source apart from the iTunes Store (which is what the right-click > Get Album Artwork function uses). For example, even though the Gracenote service that iTunes uses to match CDs and retrieve metadata (artist, album, track titles, etc.) also has artwork functions, iTunes does not make use of these.
For manual addition of artwork, there are three cases where the image you select may not be correctly embedded in your media files:
your media are in a format that doesn't accommodate embedded artwork - typically WAV files. To embed artwork you'll need to convert to another format - Apple Lossless or AIFF if you want to preserve lossless quality, AAC or MP3 otherwise.
your media files are read only - to fix this, use Windows Explorer to find the folder that contains your files, right-click and select Properties. On the General tab there's a check box labeled "Read-only" - if this is checked, or is grey (sometimes blue), click the box so that the flag is unchecked and the box is white. Click OK, and then OK again when the "Apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files" option selected. Now try adding the artwork again.
Windows permissions issues are preventing iTunes from updating your media files (there's some anecdotal evidence of a change in this behavior in iTunes 12). See turingtest2's notes on Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows for advice on fixing this, then try adding the artwork again. -
Will Lion open Appleworks documents with Pages or Numbers as Snow Leopard does?
Will Lion open Appleworks documents with Pages or Numbers like Snow Leopard does? Or do I have to convert all my Appleworks files before installing Lion?
Functionality of Pages and Numbers has little to do with whether it's runnong on Snow Leopard or Lion. Either way, if they open an AppleWorks document in SL, they'll open it in Lion. Of course, you have to understand that certain file types - particularly, AppleWorks databases - cannot be opened with anything other than AppleWorks, so you'll need to convert them with AppleWorks before upgrading to Lion.

Suddenly Can't Open PDFs in Firefox. Starting about three days ago firefox will no longer open any PDFs. I get a blank page in a new tab. Nice timing, with finals and everything where I need to view PDFs of practice tests.
Mozilla Firefox did not do their job, here. I am an editor and am constantly online. Now, I have to go to Safari to download PDFs. I reinstalled an earlier version of Firefox to get rid of the problem, but somehow Firefox has deactivated my PDF download feature. This is a total wreck and I am so angry I could spit. Stop launching new products until you have fully tested them. Customers are not your guinea pigs. Please fix this now- and fire a few idiots on the way- the ones who let this happen.

How To Save Artwork In Adobe Illustrator - YouTubeTGB,
You say/show Fit to Artboard, but I believe it should be Fit to Artwork.
When you save with Create PDF Compatible file ticked, you actually have a full PDF included in the file so you can always open it with Acrobat/Reader. It may also be worth mentioning that it is safer to Save a Copy when you want a PDF, better safe than sorry, some have found themselves without the AI file.
For crispness of vector artwork (and avoidance of lossiness) always choose PNG(24) over JPEG, transparency or no transparency.
For web and similar use, you should always make sure that the actual pixel x pixel size fits, and that is easier when you use Save for Web. You can use the Art/Type Optimized option (hidden away) in the Image Size window.
You may (or may not) wish to use the (mostly) dreaded Align to Pixel Grid when creating artwork for web and similar.
